“So what if I am?”
Wisdom King’s expression changed again and again when he heard Ye Chen’s question. Eventually, he grinned coldly and said, “Demon Blade Muramasa has indeed co to . The three of them couldn’t kill you even with Yagyu Aida’s help. How are they any different from trash?”
At that mont, he said with a spurious smile, “Mad Southern Ye, aren’t you curious why Demon Blade Muramasa would co to right away?”
“Oh, why?” Ye Chen asked with interest.
If it were anyone else, Ye Chen would not have wasted his breath on him. Instead, he would kill him with a punch. However, the guy before him had piqued his interest.
The four Yin Yang Master Clans had transferred Night Demon here. Demon Blade Muramasa had also escaped here since it was no match for Ye Chen. How could this not be worth thinking about?
“Because the three of them were the only ones in Japan who knew my real identity!”
A strange smile appeared on his face, “Do you know who the 74th emperor of Japan was?”
“I’m not interested in knowing!” Ye Chen smiled in disdain.
“It was Emperor Toba!”
Wisdom King was not angry. His expression seed to be flaunting and desolated, “What the outsiders knew was that the Emperor Toba, also known as Prince, was born in 1103 and died in 1156. People compared him to the Shang Emperor of China!
The reason being Emperor Toba had an exceptionally beloved concubine. Due to her natural beauty, she was even known as the ‘virtuous lady who emitted light from her body’. As a result, Emperor Toba specially bestowed her with the na Tamamo-no-Mae.
Emperor Toba doted on Tamamo-no-Mae so much that he ignored the governnt. One day, Emperor Toba suddenly fell sick. The ministers started to suspect Tamamo-no-Mae and secretly perford a divination on her. Eventually, Tamamo-no-Mae’s main body: the nine-tailed fox burst into light. She fled the capital and hid in the Eastern Kingdom.”
At this point, a mocking grin appeared on Wisdom King’s face, “After Emperor Toba recovered from his illness, he gave the order to hunt down the nine-tailed fox Tamamo-no-Mae. Kazusa-no-suke and Miura-no-suke followed the order and finally killed Tamamo-no-Mae.”
“Don’t tell that you’re Emperor Toba and you’ve lived for close to a thousand years!” Ye Chen smirked coldly and interrupted him.
“I’m Emperor Toba?”
Wisdom King laughed out loud as if he had heard sothing funny, “No, I’m not that fatuous ruler. I’m his enemy!
What the world doesn’t know is that when Emperor Toba was in power, he secretly set up the state preceptor position in order to compete with Emperor Shirakawa. The first state preceptor was Master Dragon Phantom, the only person in Japan who was a double cultivator in martial arts and spells!
Rumor has it that Master Dragon Phantom had the ability to move mountains and fill seas, call upon the wind and summon the rain, as well as controlling 10,000 ghosts. He had an extrely high position in the Japanese cultivation world back then. That fatuous ruler also trusted Master Dragon Phantom very much. Even before Tamamo-no-Mae, Master Dragon Phantom was the one who guided him into the palace.”
Ye Chen had a rough guess about his identity when he heard that, “That’s why you, Master Dragon Phantom, used Tamamo-no-Mae to take revenge on Emperor Toba.”
“That’s right!”
The Wisdom King glanced at him in surprise, clearly not expecting him to react so quickly. He continued, “I only wanted to destroy that incapable ruler and Tamamo-no-Mae wanted to absorb his yang energy. I never thought that she would fall in love with him over ti and even used her vitality to repair his body!
Naturally, I did not want to see that, so I secretly tampered with the incapable ruler’s body and bribed the fortune-teller to fra Tamamo-no-Mae.”
There was a cold smirk on his face as if he did not mind showing his ugliest side to Ye Chen.
“After Tamamo-no-Mae died, the incapable ruler finally realized that sothing was wrong and started to suspect . He even ordered the descendants of Abe no Seii to investigate . In the end, I was injured and escaped. I lost my cultivation base overnight.”
“Then why are you still alive?” Ye Chen asked in confusion.
Wisdom King gave a strange smile and was rather pleased with himself, “The fatuous ruler secretly ordered people to bury the remains of Tamamo-no-Mae. I had already secretly switched the corpse and retrieved Tamamo-no-Mae’s. I dug her heart out, refined her bones into dicine, and swallowed it. Unexpectedly, I beca half-human and half-demon.”
At the sa ti, his face changed constantly. Sotis, it was a human face, and sotis, it was a furry fox face. His black eyes were filled with killing intent.
“At that ti, my mind was damaged and I was in great pain. It lasted for more than 50 years before I finally found a way to break it. I used the Buddhist Dharma to suppress Tamamo-no-Mae’s consciousness remnant in my body.
Therefore, I changed my na and ca to Kongobuji to study Buddhism. This lasted for hundreds of years and I couldn’t leave the temple too far.”
Ye Chen said with a faint smile, “Why are you telling this?”
“I thought you’d never ask!”
Wisdom King chuckled and the black energy in his eyes intensified, “Because you are no different from a dead person to . Why should I torture myself by keeping the secrets in my heart for a dead person?”
“Are you that confident?” Ye Chen said in disdain.
“Hahaha!”
Wisdom King burst into laughter, “As the saying goes, the older you get, the wiser you beco. Mad Southern Ye, do you really think I’ve lived my painful hundreds of years in vain?
In a few hundred years, not only did I comprehend my own path from Buddhism, I even gathered the power of a hundred families and fused them into my own power.”
A look of disdain appeared at the corner of his lips, “People only know that there was Sword Saint Yagyu Aida in Japan, but they don’t know that Sword Saint Yagyu Aida and Shutendoji were nothing in my eyes. They were ants to !”
As he said that, he could not help but look at Ye Chen, “Mad Southern Ye, no matter how powerful you so-called ancient martial artists are, you’re still mortals. You can live for 200 years at most. I’m a half-demon, how are you going to fight ?”
“Half-demon body? You’re just a person with a human face and a beast heart. How do you even consider yourself having a half-demon body?”
Ye Chen chuckled as if he was disdainful, “You being a half-demon who inherited the nine-tailed fox aside, so what if you’re the real nine-tailed fox? It’s as easy as cutting vegetables for to kill you!”
“Shaless boasting!”
Wisdom King snorted coldly. His face was covered in frost as the aura on his body burst forth and completely enveloped the entire hall.
“I forgot to tell you, during the reign of Emperor Toba, I, Master Dragon Phantom, was the first kungfu master to break through the shackles of the physical body. At that ti, I could defeat the so-called Japanese god with just my physical strength!
Now, you shall witness my power!”
His hands suddenly expanded, turning into two extrely thick arms covered in white fur. The white claws on his hands were very sharp, and they tore through the air as soon as they appeared.
Boom!
Wisdom King roared angrily. He raised his claws to grab Ye Chen. They were as sharp as the claws of a ferocious beast.
Even Titan, who was known to have the strongest physical body in the world, had to retreat in the presence of such a powerful claw!
